Without the voltages or voltage ratio it is impossible to say. BUT - to a very good approximation, VA in equals VA out.

How many amps does a 3 kva transformer draw?

The primary current of a transformer depends upon the secondary current which, in turn, depends upon the load supplied by the transformer. There is not enough information in the question to determine the rated primary and secondary currents of the transformer.


How many amps will a 37.5 KVA transformer carry?

It depends on the rated voltage of its secondary.


Who many amps are needed to feed a 600 v to 480 v 3 phase 70 KVA transformer?

The equation for amperage when the kilowatts are known is Amps = kVA x 1000/1.73 x Volts.The electrical code states that a feeder for a transformer has to be rated at 125% for the primary and secondary load amperages.The amperage on the primary needed to supply a 70 KVA three phase transformer to its full capacity at 600 will be 68 amps. 68 x 125% = 85 amps. A #4 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 95 amps.The amperage on the secondary needed to supply a 70 KVA three phase transformer to its full capacity at 480 will be 84 amps. 84 x 125% = 105 amps. A # 3 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 115 amps.


How many amps do you need to run a 35 kva 220 to 480 3 phase transformer?

The formula you are looking for is I = KVA x 1000/1.73 x E, I = 35 x 1000 = 35000/1.73 x 220 = 381, 35000/381 = 92 amps on the primary side. 35000/1.73 x 480 = 830, 35000/830 = 42 amps on the secondary. Transformer conductors need to be rated at 125% so the primary will need an ampacity of 92 x 125% = 115. A #3 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 115 amps. The secondary conductors will need an ampacity of 42 x 125% = 53 amps A #8 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 55 amps.


How many turns in secondary coil in Transformer?

It depends on the type of transformer.If it is a step up transformer the number of turns in secondary side is higher than primary.Stepdown means it will have fewer number of windings on the secondary side turns when compared with the primary side.An isolation transformer has the same number of windings on the primary as the secondary.The ratio of the windings is proportional to the increase or decrease in the secondary voltage. For example, twice the windings doubles the voltage and 1/2 the windings halves the secondary voltage. The isolation transformer is denoted as 1:1 and has the same voltage on the secondary as the primary.The ratio of secondary turns to primary turns is the same as the ratio of secondary voltage to primary voltage.e.g. if the secondary to primary turns ratio is 1/10, then the secondary voltage will be one tenth of the primary voltage.

How many amp in 480 vac 3- phase primary transformer if the secondary it's 120 vac?

This 480-v three-phase transformer probably has a 208-v three-phase secondary which has 120 v from each line to neutral. In that case the primary current is 0.433 times as much as the secondary current, so 100 amps in the secondary means 43.3 amps in the primary.


How many amps will a 10 kva transformer handle?

It depends on how many amps it was designed for. A 12.5kV/600v 10kVA 3 phase transformer can handle ~.5 amps on the primary and ~10A on the secondary. A 600/120V 10kVA 3 phase transformer can handle ~10A on the primary and ~50 on the secondary.

The primary current of a transformer depends upon the secondary current which, in turn, depends upon the load supplied by the transformer. There is not enough information in the question to determine the rated primary and secondary currents of the transformer.

How many amps do you need to supply a 150kva transformer to get 118amps 480 volts?

Rephrase your question, as it doesn't make any sense. If the primary side of the transformer is 480 volts 3 phase, this transformer can be supplied from a breaker as big as 180 amps. If 480 volts 3 phase is your secondary then you can supply up to 180 amps to your loads.
